Income Taxes

Are you thinking tax time yet?

I e-filed my tax returns over the week-end and it was a piece of cake.

Granted, we' re not talking about a huge income here, but I did discover I could get a bigger refund by itemizing my deductions. It was the tooth implant that did it!

I now have so many replacement parts that I'm practically new. I've had cataract surgery, a bladder uplift, a face lift, and now my first tooth implant. My tonsils and adenoids are gone. So is my gall bladder and appendix. They've seized a "fatty tumor" from my neck and biopsy-ed my breasts so many times, I'm down a full cup size. Today I'm running around with a heart monitor just to make sure every thing is ticking.

I consider myself lucky. My mother had false teeth in her thirties. I do not have a family background of healthy eating habits, exercise, and good physical care. Today's preventive health care is far superior to what was going on in the 1930' s.

So how did I start on taxes and end on health care? I think it' s the high cost of living.
